Dry Land: Drought in the US

Debbie Blythe feeds cattle on her farm near White City, Kan., on Nov. 20, 2012. Ms. Blythe is among the thousands of farmers looking for alternative ways to feed their animals this winter after one of the worst droughts in US history dried up grasslands in much of the country. The drought also curtailed hay production, making it harder and more expensive for farmers to buy supplemental feed.
